Congratulations to Dr. Tyler Rauwolf for passing his Ph.D. final examination today.
Tyler gave an excellent talk outlining his exploration of multiple reaction types enroute to complex meroterpenoids. Great job!

The rare #medicinal mushrom #Hericium flagellum can produce several new meroterpenoids in solid culture, some of which have pronounced neurotrophic effects in vitro! Look at our new JAFC paper!

We have appreciated having Keira Chatwin in the Porco Group this summer as part of the BU-RISE program. Thank you for you great work on the meroterpenoids project!
